Also, tax incentives on new EVs push the used market lower, creating a false sense of depreciation.

I expect the market to reconcile the difference now that EVs subsidizes are ending.

Another possible alternative is that the consumer has to be educated that buying used EVs is not like buying a used cellphone, and that EV batteries do last 10+ years.

They dont seem to actually last 10 years though. Sure, in an old Prius you only care about the battery not being completely shorted out, and the price of battery degradation is slightly worse fuel economy.

However, every time I look at renting a Tesla on Turo, each and every example has reviews with stories about not making 100 miles to the next stop on their trip. These are cars that are only 3-4 years old, not 10.

Claude code with rails is amazing. Should out to Obie for the Claude on rails. Works phenomenally well.

The second hand market is so good for Thinkpads because there were so many of them bought by businesses.

Framework isn't the top choice for business.

There are plenty of well heeled techies who will pay premium for a modern machine with durability and repairability of the ThinkPads of the old.

What's step?

The ISO 10303 family of standards [1].

If you work on an older and large rails code base, you can easily find the programmers who came from more "formal" languages like java.

They build layers and layers of code to "isolate" rails and end up with big ball of mud. Once you do that you have to keep wrapping and adapting, and commanding, and querying and it takes a gang of more than 4 developers to maintain a feature set that could be done with 1 good rails dev.

Code is liability. Features are the asset. Well written rails has one of the best bang for the buck for lines of code per feature.

For databases, DBML is my preferred choice. I wish there was a javascript ui viewer that is not owned by company.

I think there is a market. I pay for mealime monthly, I don't even know how much it costs. The cost of an app to help the family choose a dinner menu instead of eating out is worth it. Not only for money savings, but for health as well.

One of the best features is to streamline the online ordering from the app.

It works very well.
